Hello guys, I am gathering info for an engine build on my 67 Coronet R/T's 440 and I am wondering about the Victor heads. I think I have read that they are "taller" than stock iron heads as well as the RPM's and will raise the intake. I was wondering exactly how much taller are they, and if used with Holley Street Dominator intake if the carb and factory air cleaner (still wanting a slight bit of factory look to some degree) will clear the stock hood in my 67 Coronet R/T? Sorry, not sure as to what carb I would be using although I am leaning towards doing a 512 stroker build so a Holley 850 or larger will probably be used....and if the Victors are too tall for the factory hood, is there a drop base that could bring the factory air cleaner down enough to work without restricting air flow too much? Right now with a stock intake the dual snorkels are already very close to the hood braces. Would really like to try the Victors if I can get them to fit, but I really don't want to cut holes in my hood. Any thoughts or experience on this?
